Discard or rewrite this library completely in favor of something with better structure and more functionality

[dhalbert]

This library was written in a hurry for a specific project that needed to serve large files. Most of the code was adapted from another simple HTTP server library.

It would be fine with me if this library were completely rewritten, or replaced with, say, https://github.com/deckerego/ampule, or some simple WSGI-ish server that also served files. There is nothing about the code here that is sacred. I've looked at flask and a couple of other "small" server libraries, but they don't seem small enough, or they have dependencies that are not small.
